1. FSV Mainz 05, is a German football club based in Mainz, Rhineland-Palatinate.
Mainz also earned a spot in the 2005–06 UEFA Cup in their debut Bundesliga season as Germany's nominee in the "Fair Play" draw which acknowledges positive play, respect for one's opponent, respect for the referee, the behaviour of the crowd and of team officials, as well as cautions and dismissals. Due to the Bruchweg stadium's limited capacity, the home games in UEFA cup were played in Frankfurt's Commerzbank-Arena. After defeating Mika F.C. and Keflavík ÍF in the qualifying rounds, Mainz lost to eventual champions Sevilla FC 2-0 on aggregate in the first round.
